Silhouette Patterns sew-alongs

Peggy Sagers of Silhouette Patterns is so generous with her webcast sew-alongs.
There isn’t much information about them on the Silhouette webcasts replay page, so here are more details.

Videos are about 1 hour long unless otherwise noted.
Webcasts may start with a general Q&A section, sew-alongs don’t.

I haven’t included any of Peggy’s Let’s Sew YouTubes, which are demos rather than sew-alongs.

TOPS – woven

Silhouette blouse patterns generally have 1” of armhole ease and no shoulder pads. Some light casual jacket patterns have the same armhole as the blouses.
